DSM 5 problem

Lord Alibaski · 20 Apr 2014 at 03:10

Just purchased a DS214+ but I am having a few problems setting up ftp access for a created user group.

I create the user group but I get no option at all to add a password to the user group name so they can access the NAS via ftp.

Does anyone have any idea on how to give a user group a username and password?

Thanks

Can't seem to get any help with this one at all.

Hi Dusty

Can you help me out here please m8 because my head is going from one place to another.

All I want at the moment is to set the NAS up so I can use it as a backup service for a few forum members on my forum.

Looking at it I need to set up a mail server 1st so I can invite users to the NAS these are the parts where I am having all the problems.

Ps...I'll even give you the NAS details and let you do it all for me.

Hi deuse

I have done all the above but now when I try to access the NAS via ftp I keep getting this

I've removed username and IP address

Code:

Status:	Connecting to Removed IP Address...

The funny thing is it was working last night, I tried it with the admin username and password 1st before I disabled the account and same problem there as well.

Looking in filezilla the actual ports are set higher to the ones that are set inside the NAS.

Hi deuse

I let EZ-Intenet Wizard set it up for me but like you said it has no static IP. Though 2 days ago when I 1st tried everything I could access the NAS via ftp since then I have reinstalled DSM and since the new install I can't access it.

Think I need to do this inside the virginmedia SH under the DHCP Reservvation though doing it correctly is another matter.

I haven't used admin as log in m8 I created another user like you said.

This is the 1st time I've used a NAS and server before yes.

Think I have done it.

I had to run Ez-Internet again and since then I can access the files via ftp and with the admin account and a new user account.

Cheers guys hopefully it will stay this way.

The only other thing I have noticed every time I sign in to the diskstation via webman the LAN IP address keeps changing will this be an issue?
